Line and wash self-portrait of Nicolas Steenhout. He has a black mop style paintbrush in his mouth and is holding a fountain pen in his left hand, pointing up.

Nic's Art Journey

Quick one at the doctor's

I twiddled my thumbs at the doctor’s office. What better way to pass the time than to sketch?

Line and wash sketch. An exam table seen from the foot end. On the back wall, an open door with a nurse working at a desk.

I didn’t have that much time, actually. And it was interupted. So I ended up doing the sketch itself in 2 or 3 “sessions” in-between doctors and nurses coming in. Then I colored in the car in the parking lot while the whole thing was fresh in my mind!

(Just a routine visit, BTW.)
